He could have stopped there. Amire paused his hand passing under Mars' shirt. His eyes flickered up to gaze into the other man's sullen face. His eyes were dark with a lack of sleep and his chin sported the start of an unkempt beard.
"It's not like you to sulk like this." Amire murmured letting his hand slide up the curve of Mars' waist. He felt his body arch into the touch.
"It's not like you to 'visit'. What are you here for." Mars' eyes gazed at him with suspicion. Amire shrugged and pushed Mars' shirt up higher, revealing his tanned skin.
"I missed you." Amire murmured.
"That's a rabbit hole." Mars grumbled, but he didn't put up any resistance as the blond man situated himself over him.
"Maybe." Amire lowered himself to hover closer to Mars' face his lips only inches away from his.
"It is." Amire didn't answer, only drew Mars against his hips by his waist. He pulled him flush feeling their skin meet where Amire's shirt drew up. Mars' eyes shut and Amire leaned in, letting his lips brush against the older man's. Mars hesitated before turning his face away.
"I did." Amire said against his cheek, hot breath against his skin.
"You want something." Mars muttered, shoulders tensing. "Why would you, of all people, miss me." Amire's lips came up along his earlobe, teasing the sensitive skin in a way he knew Mars liked.
"You're always around- it's strange that you're not. Why wouldn't I miss you if you leave?" Amire retorted, his voice a whisper. Mars didn't answer. Amire let his lips drift down his neck nipping. Mars' body was both familiar and unfamiliar. There were scars that Amire didn't remember, but he didn't hesitate as he brought himself lower down Mars' torso. Mars' breath had sped up and Amire saw him clench at the bed sheets.
"This is a rabbit hole," Mars whispered as Amire hooked his fingers into the man's shorts.
"Yes." Amire allowed, feeling compelled to continue. He knew he wasn't good with words. "You don't have to be alone." He murmured against his stomach. Mars' hips rose to meet Amire's fingers trailing down along hip.
